Hope this one's a keeper!

Since our truck broke down, we obviously have had to depend highly upon Ryan and Morgan for transportation. Makes me feel bad... "hi, thanks for letting us live in your house for 3 weeks, oh, and by the way, could you take us wherever we need to go in the mean time as well?" Not the best feeling. ANYWAYS! All that is over (hopefully)! We just bought a 1993 Nissan Pathfinder for only $600!! Yes, the air-conditioning is broken, aaannnd it does tend to run pretty hot when going up hills, but other than that (both easily fixable) all is well! We purchased it from a nice LDS couple who decided to up their space when they had their baby, so they did actually lower the price from $700 to $600 for us for having to fix the problems.
Still.... $600?! People like to give away cars out here. All the ones for sale for $900 and under here, would easily sell for near $1,500 up in the Spokane area. So I think we got a pretty good deal. Though, buying a new car makes me a little nervous about our cash situation.. seeing as Brayden doesn't start work until next month. So we'll see what happens.
So here she is! We named her "shannon"
